Liquid Vitamin D3 from Solgar comes in a delicious orange flavor at 5,000 IU per serving. Vitamin D is required to promote calcium absorption. It helps to maintain healthy bones and teeth. It also delivers support to a healthy immune system, as well as the pancreas, breast, colon and prostate tissue. As we age our bodies produce this vital nutrient less efficiently.

in order to get the amount on the label, you need an entirely filled dropper container. I thought it would be one or two drops. I have no challenges as to the quality, just the amount it takes to get what it says on the label.

This is an excellent product and much better than swallowing pills. There is no aftertaste and it is easily added to other liquids. I would recommend this as a great alternative for anyone who has difficulty swallowing even small pills.

Q: Why are some vitamin D products measured in IU while others are in mcg?

Due to changes in FDA labeling guidelines, vitamin D amounts must now be listed in micrograms (mcg) on supplement facts and nutrition labels instead of international units (IU). Although these new guidelines were issued in 2016, updates weren't required until June 2020.

At Swanson, we began updating our labels in early 2017. You will see a mixture of both IU and mcg as our national brand partners complete this process.

Q: Did my vitamin D supplement change?

A: You may have noticed a change in the daily value percentage on your favorite vitamin D product, but that doesn't mean your product changed. The FDA increased the recommended daily intake (RDA) of vitamin D, which means the same product with the same ingredient amounts fulfills a lower percentage of the RDA than it prior to the change.

Q: How much vitamin D do I need each day?

In 2016, the Food and Nutrition Board increased the Recommended Dietary Allowance (RDA) of vitamin D for most adults from 10 mcg (400 IU) to 15 mcg (600 IU) per day, and 20 mcg (800 IU) for ages 70+.

Some doctors and nutritionists recommend higher daily vitamin D intakes, especially for those at risk for having low levels. The Vitamin D Council, an organization dedicated to raising awareness about vitamin D, recommends average adults supplement with 125 mcg (5,000 IU) of vitamin D daily. Talk with your doctor about your individual needs.
